Art, poly sci
when WASC
majors may find trouble
accreditation team comes
By Tom Pace
Editor
Two of Cal Baptist's smaller
majors may find themselves the
center of controversy as the accreditation committee from the
Western Association of Schools
and Colleges arrives next year.
The issue centers around two of
the smaller departments on campus which have only one full-
time professor each.
In its November, 1988 report,
the WASC Visiting Team to Cal
Baptist expressed concern over the
amount of "Financial support to
strengthen departments with very
limited faculty," such as the Art
and Political Science departments.
According to Dr. Stephen
Carleton, Academic Dean, the
college recognized in its 1986
self-study for WASC that it is
difficult to offer a major with
only one full-time professor in
the department
"There is no doubt that two
persons can do a better job than
one," said Dr. Tim Luther, who
is the only full-time professor in
the Political Science Department.
Luther expressed concern that
students in these smaller departments don't get the variety of
viewpoints and course offerings
possible in departments with
more than one principal professor.
"Being a one-person department
does strech me very thinly," said
Luther.
Carleton stated "We have not
been able to fund the additional
full-time faculty member," citing
this as the reason that no new

New ensemble formed;
Fortress to sing in Japan
By Brenda Flowers
(PIQ
Fortress, a music ministry
group from California Baptist
College, has been invited to travel to Japan this spring to share
the Gospel through music.
The group will perform at the
70th anniversary celebration of
Seinan Jo Gakuin Junior College, a women's school founded
by Southern Baptists in Kokura,
Kita-ku.
"We are thrilled at the prospect
of the group coming to Japan,"
said Dennis Woolbright, a teacher
at Seinan Jo Gakuin.
Duane Taylor, director of Fortress and Light! at Cal Baptist,
was contacted by Judy Robertson
of the Foreign Missions Board
ans requested to send a tape of the
group.
"Listening to the demonstration
tape, I felt like singing along and
for some of the numbers I
couldn't keep still," said Woolbright.
Mark Edlund, chief administrator of the Japan Baptist Mission
and Southern Baptist missionary,
has also invited the group to perform throughout the country.
"This is a wonderful opportunity to represent God and Cal Baptist," said Taylor.
Seinan Jo Gakuin also includes
a kindergarten, junior high
school, and high school. In a
country where the Christian population is estimated to be only 1
percent, most of the students at
the school are said to be non-
Christian.
Last year, Fortress was an ensemble which served as part of
the Public Affairs department,
much like its counterpart Light!
This year, the group will be
formed solely for the Japan trip.

unanimously to close the No
Exit a garage located next to the
library formerly used as a clubhouse by the Socratic Club.
"The services provided by the
No Exit are no longer needed and
the Socratic Club believes it is
wrong to compete with the Student Center," said Michelle Battson, Socratic Club Triumvirate
member.
The Socratic Club was given
30 days to remove its belongings
to make way for the garage's new
use as a storage shed. Jamie Coston, ASCBC President, stated
that it is vital for maintenance to
have an "accessable, nice place
for chairs" to be stored.
"I've worked on Maintenance
and know the work involved in
moving chairs. They lost a lot
of storage space with the opening
of Wanda's Place and the Mail
Room," said Mike MacDonald,
President Pro Tern of the Senate.
A motion is pending in the
Student Senate to open a room
on the fifth floor of the James
Building for club usage.
The closure of the No Exit was
deemed to be "in the best interest
of all," said Coston and the administration is considering the
proposal for clubs to use the fifth
floor.
Senate member Dell Rollings
said the "Senate intends to find a
replacement" location that would
be for all clubs to use.
